Considering how many awesome cabover trucks there are, I feel like they missed a chance to be the same practical shape as NASA’s concept without losing design points. Example: this kickass Tatra

Because they’re built from generic truck platforms. You’d need a custom fancy frame to go lower compared to a flat ladder frame.

Isn’t it pronounced “porsh” in English? Sort of like how “bruschetta” is different in English and Italian.

I’d buy that just for the column shift.

Thick A-pillars aren't so bad if you can see through them. (2001 Volvo SCC)

Nonsense, who wouldn't want a missile switch for their car?

The pressure inside an airplane is maintained at 8000 ft (750mbar), but the pressure at cruise altitude is more like 300mbar. So every flight the whole airplane gets squeezed from the inside out by 500mbar of pressure (= 50kPa \ 7.5psi).

You just can't get that kind of power off a 120V plug. The best we're talking is maybe 50% overnight. If you can't get your landlord to hook you up a 240V plug (i.e. a regular electric oven/dryer/etc. plug) or let you have a charging station installed, then you're simply out of luck.

Hand size doesn't differ too much between sexes. (The distance between medians is about 3/4in | 20mm.) The issue is one-handed usability, which is generally a problem on Android regardless of your sex or hand size.

Why would they want to make a RWD platform? The kind of people that want a rear-drive Volvo are, sadly, too few in number to make this worthwhile, especially when the previous R-series models were all AWD anyway

The general concept of a parallel-electric hybrid was about as advanced as you could get in the late 90s when they first came out, and most of the design is pretty easy to base it off a regular powertrain. These days, you could design a better hybrid by basing the design off an electric and swapping a generator in for…

Electronic parts are harder to fix but they're harder to break too

Front-drive is far more practical for snowy climates than rear drive.

It's for testing purposes. The techs are monitoring the car to make sure it's working properly and making the right decisions. The final, consumer grade versions will have full-autonomous capability.

So why exactly do people have kids if it's this awful? I don't get it.

I've heard that the reason for this is that this kind of strength is possible, but your brain limits it outside emergencies because it's extremely damaging to your joints and tendons and ligaments and everything

It looks like somebody stuffed a plastic bag full of peanut butter.

A crappy generic Bentley would make for a pretty good VW

That's because they're heavier.

Sounds like he's just having a bad day and needs to take it out on whatever he can.
